This week we’re chatting with the amazing Dr Shereen Lim about oral and airway health in children! We discuss what it means if you have a ‘mouth breather’, the impact of dummies and thumb sucking on airway health, snoring in children and what this means, oral and tongue development in kids and so much more!

Dr Shereen Lim is a Perth based dentist with a post graduate diploma in dental sleep medicine from the University of Western Australia. She has been involved in the team management of snoring and obstructive sleep apnoea since 2011. 

Dr Lim is dedicated to promoting airway health from infancy as an alternative approach to minimize the development of these problems, and is author of the book “Breathe, Sleep, Thrive: Discover How Airway Health Can Unlock Your Child’s Greater Health, Learning and Potential.”

Her work in private practice is restricted to tongue tie management from infancy to adulthood, early interceptive orthodontics and myofunctional therapy.

Mumma Etc.'s baby carriers are designed with years of babywearing knowledge to produce comfortable and supportive carriers (for both mum and baby). All of their carriers are made of 100% linen which is soft, natural and hard wearing. It's cool against the skin, moisture wicking, hypoallergenic and antibacterial.

Their patterns and designs are super stylish yet still minimalistic to fit seamlessly into mum's wardrobes. Mumma etc carriers can be used from newborn at 3.6kg to toddlerhood allowing baby to face both inwards and outwards with an adjustable base that adapts as your baby grows. 

We've all had those carriers that just don't sit quite right, or don't feel like they're secure enough to keep bub tight and comfortable, which is why Mumma Etc's carriers have been designed with a combination of wide shoulder straps along with a cross back style to ensure even weight distribution. This makes baby wearing so much more comfortable, supporting you to be hands free but also supporting your back while keeping your baby correctly supported too. 

Mumma Etc.'s Daily Carrier has sold out 10 times since its release last year, sparking buzz among mums for its perfect mix of clever design, comfort and style. To purchase one of their stylish, comfortable and sell out carriers head to mummaetc.com or @mumma_etc on instagram and use the code BabyBrain15 for 15% off.
